„To ride the highest standard gauge railway in the world and explore the rail systems of the Andes had long been a dream of the author’s. When a tour operator’s advertisement caught his eye he was off… From the sturdy Baldwin steam locomotive to an abondoned 1918 Hunslet Saddle Tank loco, flatcars to trolley-buses, we are given a glimpse into the most remote corners of Peru, Colombia and Ecuador. Here we enter a land where time has slowed, nature fights with economics, and wealth and poverty stand side by side. In this engaging, detailed and often hilarious account of rail travel in South America, the forgotten heroes of one of the harshest landscapes in the world are given a voice that will captivate train lovers and travellers alike.“–Publisher’s description.

„Professor Kim Clark explores a time period and country for which little has been published in English. By studying the dimensions of politics and culture as one, Professor Clark argues that the local railroad case served as a demonstration of some of the problems that were most important during the liberal period.“ „At the turn of the century, diverse political, economic, and social conditions divided Ecuador. During the construction of the Guayaquil and Quito Railway, the people of Ecuador faced the challenge of working together. The Redemptive Work examines and ties together various local, regional, and national perspectives on the building of the railway and the role its construction played in national incorporation.“ „This unusual book is useful for undergraduate and graduate students interested in expanding their knowledge in the fields of Latin American history, social history, anthropology, historical sociology, comparative development, political science, and courses on nation and state formation.“ BOOK JACKET.
